I know what I have, it's just a matter of figuring out what is what! ;~)
As they're still immature and not in full color, I'm having a frustrating time with my photo ID's!

I've tried to research as many photos as I can and do my own homework first,
but my eyes are bluring and they're all begining to look alike! ;~)
So, any suggestions would be helpful!
I didn't think that I'd have so much trouble with this.
I thought that just getting decent photos of the fast little monsters would be difficult enough.

They're a mixture of:
Fieryblack Shiners (Cyprinella pyrrhomelas)
Rainbow Shiners (Notropis chrosomus)
Apalachee Shiners (Pteronotropis grandipinnis)
Mountain Redbelly Dace (Phoxinus oreas)

The direct link to my new photo set is:
http://www.flickr.co...57612142399486/



And, also...
I'd like to use my Flickr page to upload photos and host them myself.
I've read through what I could here and couldn't find anything about it.
As I'm paying for it, I might as well take advantage of it.
Photos could be better and take up less space here.
Everytime I've tried here, it's failed.

Thanks a lot!
Scott

Fieryblack Shiners (Cyprinella pyrrhomelas) didn't notice any
Rainbow Shiners (Notropis chrosomus) looking just at the thumbnails, the ones with the gold line
Apalachee Shiners (Pteronotropis grandipinnis) again looking at the thumbnails, the ones with more of a white line
Mountain Redbelly Dace (Phoxinus oreas) only a few most in background, broken black line with tiny dots above

photo _0089_1 shows all three: bottom left - Apalachee, top - Rainbow, bottom right - Mt redbelly

Thanks!
Yeah, as far as the Fieryblack Shiners, I don't think that I really took any photos of 'em.
They're all still pretty small and I didn't see any point.
The main difficulty that I was having, was between the Redbelly Dace and the Rainbow shiners.
They were just all blending together and looking the same, after a while.
After all the time it took getting and proccessing these photos, I was just getting tired of compairing every one to ID photos.
It's the editing and proccessing that take up all the time involved.
If I have the time, this evening, I'll try to work on attaching some more names and tags to it all.
I also forgot that I have a folder of Fundulus chrysotus photos that I haven't done much with.
That'll have to later, as well.;~)
Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it!

Scott
